. >> alec's domination of arizona proved too much for state representative steve farley. >> i just want to emphasize it's fine for corporations to be involved in the process. corporations have the right to present their arguments, but they don't have the right to do it secretly. they don't have the right to lobby people and not register as lobbyists. they don't have the right to take people away on trips, convince them of it, send them back here, and then nobody has seen what's gone on and how that legislator had gotten that idea and where is it coming from. >> farley has introduced a bill to force legislators to disclose their alec ties, just as the law already requires them to do with any lobbyist. >> all i'm asking in the alec accountability act is to make sure that all of those expenses are reported as if they are lobbying expenses and all those gifts that legislators received are reported as if they're receiving gifts from lobbyists. so the public can find out and make up their own minds about who is influencing what. >> steve farley's bill has gone nowhere. alec, on the other hand

if steve cross had a follow-up to that, they never aired it. >> that's right, they never follow up with the president. the fundamental flaw in the media's thinking as exhibited, when the president says well, the organizing principle is islam, mr. president, it's not just islam, it's the extremist wing of islam and name me a country other than indonesia and maybe turkey though we don't know exactly where that's going where this fundamentalist islam has been nonviolent, has promoted equality of women or any other things. this is a fool's errand and the editorials in the newspapers miss this because they don't have a religious perspective. >> judy, the death, the assassination of our ambassador, of two former seals, of the state department employee, bumps in the road. where was the criticism over that comment? >> i think what the president was talking about was the broader context of the wave of change, and that in the wave of change, there are going to be bumps on the road. he -- i do not think that he meant to suggest an and most people did not interpret it to mean the death of four amer

steve, i gotta tell you i am amazed at the job that umpires do. i could never stand there and you know, i mean there are some obvious strikes and some obvious balls but if those ones that are on the border line, you know, right on the corner, man, i would not trust myself with a call like that. so i admire the work that you do. even at the high school level. but imagine if you were called up to the big leagues tonight man! >> caller: that's what i'm saying, i have friends who have been aaa minor league umpires and you know, guys who have worked in the big leagues but make the living getting strikes out and figuring out exactly where the umpire was going to call that strike. i wanted to make a comment on your point about romney and ryan and scott walker and -- they won't learn anything, bill. >> bill: yeah. >> caller: in my opinion at least, they live on the idea that -- and paul ryan's best example of this. this is a guy who voted for -- has voted for medicare part d and it was a good thing to do but not in the way it was done. they're not going t

steve, let's inside these numbers. you've got some charts explaining president obama's recent surge in the polls. >> yes, because while i agree with a lot of what joe said, there are some substantive reasons why president obama should be doing better at the moment. they don't get as much attention. so let's talk a little about it. first, nobody is happy with the state of the economy at the moment. 2% growth with 8% unemployment. but as we've talked about on this show, it's the trend as much as absolute levels that determine how people feel. this is an historical chart of economic optimism going back to '09. and you can see the ups and downs of people's opinion where they started up with 42% being economically optimistic that things are going to get better. it went steadily down into the summer of '11 partly because of the weak economy, partly because of the debt ceiling crisis. since then it has been climbing back up with a few hiccups all the way back up to 42% right at the peak where it was during the obama presidenc
